Cure-all, Chapter 12
Tina’s heart sank.
"Unforgettable…?" She reiterated again, in a daze.
"And when I was in her arms, I felt… I felt in heaven!" The young woman exclaimed, entranced.
"… In her arms?" Tina was shattered. Her heart started to ache in a way she had never felt before, and its beats became so deafening that she almost missed Carmen’s following words.
"Yes, Shane’s… Bette’s friend!" The young woman replied, oblivious to Tina’s distress.
At these words, the blonde felt like the heaviest weight had been lifted from her heart. She let out the breath she didn’t know she was holding, and her face suddenly lit up.
"Of course! Shane… Her friend, the adventuress!" Tina was litterally beaming, "And you fell in love with her?… Oh Carmen, that’s wonderful!"
Tina was genuinely happy for the young woman. She seemed so smitten with the young photographer, after only a few moments with her. And so what? Tina thought, after all, does it really take hours to fall in love?… How lucky for Carmen that Alice had asked Bette to be her date.
Bette…
Everytime the name crossed her mind, Tina felt her heart jump. It could have been because everytime, the dazzling smile associated with it appeared before her eyes. Or because everytime, the sultry voice belonging to that name echoed in her head like the sweetest melody. Or maybe just because she could still feel the softness of her hand… of her skin…
How lucky for Carmen…
"I know it’s crazy, but I just can’t help it…!" Carmen said excitedly, "She’s wonderful, she can do anything! Climb mountains, drive race cars, sail across an ocean… Bette told me everything about her! … Poor Bette, I probably wore her out with all my questions."
I can think of other ways I’d love to wear her out…
… Whoa, what was that Tina?
"Bette is wonderful too you know" Carmen said, unknowingly in tune with Tina’s thoughts, "She’s such a brilliant researcher! And sort of an adventurer too. Look, this afternoon I found a book that she wrote a few years ago. It’s about her expedition in the Amazonian rainforest, while she was working on malaria. She had brought Shane with her."
As she talked, the young woman took a book out of her bag and handed it to Tina. The blonde took it and looked at it fondly. "Fever and blood", the cover said, by Professor Bette Porter. There was also a picture of Bette on the back cover. Tina’s eyes fell upon the small size photographed face. The beautiful face she just couldn’t get out of her mind. And the soulful eyes looking back at her brought it all back. The warmth, the peace, the confort… But also these delicious shiver and exquisite tension that she knew she wouldn’t be able to ignore much longer. It was all there, as well as their incredible connection, which had them bound through the simple photograph of a hard cover.

follow your heart tina… let helena go… she probably won’t even mind… she is on the go most of the time any way… PPS
Something tells me Tina found at least one thing to do over her free time — read Bette’s book! I love how they are both wanting to please one another without interacting. PPS!
Love at first sight, what are you going to do? I’m sure Tina’s dilemma will be lessened when she reads the book. PPS.
We need more…I can’t wait to see how this marriage ends. I just hope there is not cheating before hand. pps
Somehow can you make Helena disappear? They should have never gotten married and now Tina meets the woman that will not leave her brain alone. Her true soul mate!
learn to dance quickly Bette…oh there seems to be sadness and drama ahead for these 3. PPS
It´s such a great story. Bette learning to tango, now there´s a mental image!
It’s time for Tina to listen to her heard and leave Helena and find her way to Bette. Please post more and sooner. Great Story.
OMG ! I’m so stupid ! When I first read this : ” Put your arms around me and I will guide you through the steps, alright? ” I thought Bette was actually helping out some visually impaired kid or something… Little did I know that she was taking dance classes !!! And that I would laugh my a** off at her following sentence… ” No, not alright… Not alright at all ! ” Hahahaha ! Oh, and of course I loved the misunderstanding between Carmen and Tina as the young woman was talking about her meeting with Shane. Can’t wait for Bette and Tina to meet again… But at the same time I have a feeling the wait is going be very worthwhile. Great great chapter, K ! Thank you.
Here’s all I need to know about Helena… she abandons her new wife for a business trip, forgoing wedding nights, honeymoons, or anything… that’s bad enough, yeah? But upon her return, she greets Tina, her lovely new bride, with a kiss on the CHEEK? Really, Helena? Right then. It’s settled: Run, Tina, as fast and as far as you can, and hopefully right into Bette’s newly-minted, tango-dancin’ arms. Okay then, KW. Thanks for this chapter, and post soonish, please. Cheers!
That was great and Bette is so sweet learning how to dance tango for Tina. Tina need to dump Helena soon and find Bette. Please more, thanks!
